** Description changed: I was asked to create a new user to test a nautilus bug and Users and Groups seems to have failed catastrophically. I made a user tester, gave it a password and then pressed return as this laptop is stuck in 800x600 (due to another bug) and I couldn't see any OK type buttons to confirm. When the applet returned to the initial window there was no sign of a user tester in the list. Closing the applet and restarting it gave me the same window with no users listed, and the unlock button didn't do anything. I went looking in the syslogs and found this: auth.log shows that the applet went on a deletion spree! - Typing to load synaptic failed as user root is not known to the system! + Trying to load synaptic failed as user root is not known to the system!
